I have recentlybeen informed that Wolstenholmes have closed. They conducted my conveyancing in Ogmore Vale for a purchase of a leasehold apartment 10 months ago. How can I check that the property is in my name in the name of the previous owner?

The quickest way to see if the property is in your name, you can make a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Ogmore Vale conveyancing specialists.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and identified one close by in Ogmore Vale I like with amenity areas and station in the vicinity, however it only has 52 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Ogmore Vale suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a short lease?

Should you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will be an issue. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the property for at least twenty four months you could request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.

What are the frequently found problems that you encounter in leases for Ogmore Vale properties?

There is nothing unique about leasehold conveyancing in Ogmore Vale. Most leases are individual and legal mistakes in the legal wording can sometimes mean that certain provisions are not included. For example, if your lease is missing any of the following, it could be defective:

    A provision to repair to or maintain elements of the property A duty to insure the building

You will have difficulties when selling your property if you have a defective lease primarily because it impacts on the ability to obtain a mortgage on the property. Barclays , Coventry Building Society, and Aldermore all have very detailed requirements when it comes to what is expected in a lease. Where a lender has been advised by their lawyers that the lease does not cover certain provisions they may refuse to provide security, forcing the purchaser to pull out.

I invested in buying a studio flat in Ogmore Vale, conveyancing formalities finalised 5 years ago. How much will my lease extension cost? Equivalent properties in Ogmore Vale with an extended lease are worth £255,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £45 charged once a year. The lease ends on 21st October 2099

You have 73 years unexpired we estimate the premium for your lease extension to span between £8,600 and £9,800 as well as costs.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs in the absence of detailed investigations. You should not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be other concerns that need to be considered and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not take any other action placing reliance on this information without first seeking the advice of a professional.
